Ok metal militia, since you wish to represent the mass of the metalheads on this website, there need to be some changes. No more poopy metal that you are all used to. These are 10 albums you will listen to, and you will love, this is not a request this is a demand, listen and enjoy.

This album destroys and USBM to date. No crappy vocals, no droning boring atmospheres, just amazing atmospheric black metal with great vocals and musicianship. Listen to this album and tell me it does not destroy bands like Leviathan or Xasthur.

As much credit as this album gets, I have not seen any of you on this militia talk about it. Superb technical death metal with nearly flawless playing. This stuff also happens to be brutal as hell and was made by people your age and younger, listen to it.

If you claim to be a melodic black metal fan and have not heard this album your a failure at life. This album has indescribable atmosphere with soothing keyboard, solid instrumental work and fantastic vocals.

This album is a gem in folk and symphonic metal. Amazing vocals and beautiful instrumental work, the folk elements are used just the right amount without overdoing it and the whole album has an epic feel.

Probably my favorite Katatonia album, sorrowful and powerful. This is nothing like their new stuff though, it is doom metal with some black elements with some small but fitting and amazing keyboard use, amazing album.

Metal Militia is a joke mo fo. I dont think I ever listen to bad metal, not that i'm aware of. I never heard 10 but should make that a priority. Brave Murder Day and Tonights Decision are my favorites. I also wasn't aware Wolves came out with a new album.

Obviously you're not, because nothing on here is really all that obscure besides maybe Wolves in the Throne Room or Inquisition, and thats a stretch. And there are like... 2 death metal albums on here.

I've actually heard parts (if not all) of 1, 2, 6, 7, and 10 and wasn't really impressed. I was already in the process of checking out 5, as suggested by south_of_heaven. The only Katatonia album I can listen to is TCDD. I like Summoning but I haven't heard anything from that particular album. I absolutely despise Decapitated (and, strangely, pretty much every other Polish metal band) with a passion that burns deep within my soul.

After all that, I'm left to check out 3, 4, 8, and 9. Thanks, I'm always looking for new bands.

I think "The End Complete" is better than COD. I have read the metal militia stuff and while cheesy, seems too innocent to be so harshly labeled. And the moto x team is Metal Mulisha, and they also sponsor underground bare knuckle fighting. It was started by Brian Deegan. I am a huge fan because I love to ride and fight
